everything you need to know about the mod subculture of 1960s london.
LibraryThing member h3athrow
A great snapshot of one of the most buttoned-up subcultures. Cleancut-looking kids all hopped up on amphetamines dancing to R&B! While the 150 black-and-white photographs are wonderful, the 18-page essay that bookends the images is priceless.
